Pools will close temporarily for any lightning within 2 miles. At Cottonwood Creek we will give a raincheck if the pool is closed for lightning within 30 minutes of your arrival.

You may make reservations for large groups (20+) and birthday parties. We currently do not have a call ahead or wait away system at our indoor pools. We request two weeks notice for any group reservation larger than 20 and birthday parties.

As long as the pool is not at capacity, another person can buy your day pass ahead of time if you will be joining them soon. You will need to present a government issued photo ID (if 18+) upon arrival.  

Swim bands are part of our method of providing a safe environment for every child.

Members can wear previously earned neck bands and bring them to the pools. Member bands are determined by the most recent band noted in our system.
